Preliminary Considerations Checklist for Outdoor Compactors
may be helpful
The Compacting Dumpsters
are a liquid tight (up to 17") design that allows for both wet and dry
waste to be compacted and stored while awaiting disposal. These Outdoor
Compactors (also referred to occasionally as Compactor Dumpsters or Dumpster
Compactors) offer a unique way to handle large amounts of trash with very
little space outdoors. Trash Haulers are able to 'tip' these compacting
dumpsters in the same way that they do their other (non-compacting)
dumpsters. Oftentimes, waste hauling costs can be cut in half as a result of
the reduction in service (tipping) requirements.
Safety, Cleanliness &
Sanitation
In
addition to substantially reducing tipping fees / charges, these compactors
can also help towards greatly reducing scavengers, insect and rodent
problems, odor problems, fire hazards, overflowing dumpsters and much more.
Great Design
Many standard features help make this a
must for numerous waste processing applications. For example, the counter-balanced loading door is easy to open
and the loading height is only about 3 feet. In addition, the power unit
is free-standing and can be placed nearby the trash compactor at the most convenient location.
Simple & Safe Operation
The operation of the outdoor waste compactor is simple and safe. After opening the
counter-balanced loading door and discarding the trash into the large one cubic yard hopper,
it is just a matter of closing the door and pushing the start button.
The waste compactor cycles completely within 20 seconds and it is ready to accept
more trash. These trash compactors come with many safety features such as a dual interlock system on the loading door and keylock controls
that prevent unauthorized and unsafe operation. In addition, all controls are UL listed and the
compactor meets or exceeds all ANSI and OSHA standards.
